The time for returning youi
property for 1922 taxation is here
—the book closes May 1st —and
the question arises, will the He
eeiver of tax returns have to urge
you in order for the State and
County to get what you honestly
should pay to the support of these
governments? Are you going to
do the equalizing for yourself and
deal justly by the State and Coun
ty? It is to be hoped so. No man
gains anything by fudging on bis
government.
Editor W. It. Frier states that
he has secured permanent quarters
for his paper, The Douglas Enter
prise, in the handsome Lankford
block, and the Enterprise will soon
emerge from its ashes better and
brighter than ever and in a home
second to none south of Macon or
west of Savannah. It is, indeed,
a handsome home, iie invites all
his friends to come to see him
when the machinery gets to run
ning smoothly. Douglas withoul
the Enterprrse would not be
natural, they have been together
for many years.
The Tribune has had nothing or
very little to say regarding the
propriety of issuing $75,000,000 of
state bonds for the purpose of com
pleting the slate system of high
ways. The proposition is a good
one, but it is the opinion of the
Tribune that, under the present
stress of financial affairs, its agita
tion at this time is unwise. The
voters of Georgia are just now un
alterably opposed to anything that
lias the appearance of additional
taxation; get their minds warped
against the proposition now, it will
be with them for many years. If
let alouo until the preliminaries
are arranged and the citizens in a
better frame of mind, the proposi
tion will meet a better reception
at their hands.
"Yeggmen,” says the Tifton
Gazette, “entered the postofliee
at Sycamore Sunday night, blew
open the safe and secured about
s<>oo in war savings stamps, SI,OOO
in postage stamps and S2OO in cash.
The burglars first broke into a
blacksmith shop and secured some
tools wtib which they forced open
the door of the postofliee building.
The safe in the postofliee was
blown open with nitro glycerine.
Several families living nearby
heard the report of the explosion,
which was so great that one of the
large glass windows in the front of
t he building was shattered.” There
must be a gang of these scoundrels
working throughout South Geor
gia. The postoffices at Ilahira,
Ray City, Milltown, llomervillo.
Pearson and Sycamore have been
touched by them. None of these
have night police on duty, and
they are easy prey for these ex
pert swag-lifters.
The Athens convention to boost
co-operative marketing of Georgia
products was a talk fest of t lie
highest order. But it is destined
to accomplish nothing because it
is backed up only by hot-air, and
is antagonistic to the State Bu
reau of Markets, the only co-opera
tive effort that can possibly sue
ceed. The Tribune is not smitten
by Commissioner Brown but his
department of the State govern
ment, including the legally consti
tuted State Bureau of Markets,
under the ;egis of the State, can
function and handle this work bet
ter than any outside organization.
Hence the Tribune favors the
placing a man of strong mentality
and business acumen at the head
of the State Department of Agri
culture who can command the
confidence and co-operation of the
farmers of the State in the ae
eomplisbment of the work iu hand.
The Bureau should handle nothing
save in car load lots.
AROUND THE CIRCLE.
Tbornasville suffered Tuesday
afternoon from a blaze that con
sumed the big plant of the Thomas
ville Variety Works, covering an
•nt ire city block. The loss is es
hnated to be : 115,000. The pro
prietor, K E. Mack, announces
that it will be rebuilt at once, ft
vas doing a thriving business.
A news story, emanating from
Atlanta, says Congressman Frank
Park, of the Second district, is be
ing pressed to become a candidate
for governor of Georgia against
I'om Hardwick at the coming elec
tion. it is not known what are
his views on the subject. It is
ilso given out from Atlanta that
Hon. Clifford Walker will probably
be a candidate for governor this
year.
At the recent term of Bacon
superior court the grand jury re
commended the repeal of the Act
of the legislature creating the
City Court of Alma, and also that
i he City Court judge cease to hold
court for the transaction of civil
business. The legislative act re
quires that he hold court for the
transaction of civil business, and
the grand jury tells him not to do
it. Which should he obey? That
was some grand jury!
A creamery and a creamery sta
tion are different propositions. A
creamery is the factory where
cream is made iuto butter and
prepared for market and the con
sumer. A creamery station is
a place where cream is tested for
its value in butter fat before ship
ping to the creamery, or factory.
Each community should have a
station, but too many creameries
would spoil the industry. There
are now three in Southwest Geor
gia—Moultrie, Ayhburu and Daw
son.
The supreme court of the United
States has settled the disputed
boundary line between South Caro
1 ina. and Georgia. From it there
is no appeal. The court’s decision
is that “Where there are noislands
in the Savannah river the line
shall be midway between the two
states, and where there are islands
the line shall be midway between
the islands and the South Carolina
shore.” Thus the islands have
been awarded to Georgia. This
dispute was more than a century
old.
Judge Escbol Graham, of the
Oemulgee judicial circuit, is pre
siding in Glynn superior court in
the trial of Leonard Carter, indict
ed in Wayne superior court of
fraudulent practice which caused
the suspension of both the Jesup
Banking Company and the Odum
Banking Company, of Wayne conn
ty. Judge Higlismitb, of the
Brunswick judicial circuit is dis
qualified in all the eases arising in
the Bank failures, which have
been transferred from Wayne to
Glynn county.
Mr. John T. Williams, a son in
law of Hon. Arthur Moore who
formerly lived iu the territory
of Atkinson county, died hi Alapa
ha Tuesday, January 2Uh, and
the interment was next day in the
Willaeooehee cemetery. He was a
brother-in-law of Messrs. E. L. and
Moses Moore of Willaeooehee, Drs.
W. A. and Henry Moore of Alapa
ha, .1 udge James Moore of Adel and
Mr. Ben Moore of Macon. At the
time of his death Mr. Williams
was engaged iu the mercantile bus
iness w ith Mr. M. ,1. McMiliian at
Alupaha. He is survived by his
wife, and 9 year old daughter aud
several brothers and sisters.
Sunday, February 12th, will be
Georgia's one hundred and eighty
eighth birthday. It was on the
12th day of February, 1733, that
Gen. James E. Oglethorpe and his
colonists labeled ou Yamacraw
bluff (Savannah) and laid the
foundation for the future “Empire
State of the South.” It was a
colony of Great Britain and ruled
by Colonial governors until the
declaration of American independ
ence Georgia became one of the
original thirteen American states,
and on February sth. 1777, adopt
ed the first State Constitution, and
PEARSON TRIBUNE. PEARSON. GEORGIA. FEBRUARY 3, 1922
under it elected John Adam Treut
len governor, he being the first
constitutional governor —one hund
red and forty-five years ago, next
Sunday.
The Tribune calls especial atten
tion to the advertisement “A Real
Sale offering Pure Bred Poland
China Sows,” of the Cedar Hill
Stock Farms,” near Adel. The
Poland China hog is well adapted
to this climate and section, and
this sale offers a good opportunity
for our farmers interested in stock
raising to get pure bred stock.
The Tribune editor is acquainted
with the owners of this stock farm,
have known them for years, and
can recommend them as thorough
ly reliable in their dealings.

Tired
"I was weak and run-down,"
relates Mrs. Eula Burnett, of
Dalton, Ga. “I was thin and
just felt tired, all the time.
I didn’t rest welL X wasn't
ever hungry. I knew, by
this, I needed a tonic, and
as there Is none better than—
CARDUI
Tiis Woman’s Tonic
. . . X began using Cardu!,”
continues Mrs. Burnett.
“After my first bottle, I slept
better and ate better. I took
four bottles. Now I'm well,
feel just fine, eat and sleep,
my skin is clear and I have
gained and sure feel that
Cardul Is the best tonic ever
made."
Thousands of other women
have found Cardul just as
Mrs. Burnett did. It should
help you.
At all druggists.
